Lesson 4

Filipinos are the most hospitable people in the world. We have want of nothing here. What they have they will give us; we only have to ask, and when the give it to us, they give us a lot. On Monday, we went to a rotary meeting in a city named Tagum. They were wonderful, and they toured us all around the city. For lunch, we went to a coffee shop owned by one of the Rotarians. Victoria, Carver, and Jessica had ordered lunch earlier in the day because of their vegetarian, dietary needs. Victoria had ordered soup, Carver had ordered a tuna sandwich, and Jessica had ordered a crepe. Well, that's what everyone got. All three dishes. The food just kept coming and coming. We also had fruit, which has been a staple of our diet, and coffee and sodas. We could not eat it all. Now we know, you have to tell them EXACTLY what you want, and then you will receive it.
